Even after six decades, variants of this model and the original one remain the most widely used assault rifle in the world, due to their low production cost, durability and ease to use. First developed in the USSR by Mikhail Kalashnikov, the AK-47 is a selective-fire, gas operated 7.62x39mm assault rifle.

The AK-47 is perhaps one of the most iconic assault rifles in the world, and in-game the weapon has unique characteristics. The high damage per shot and fast reload speed make it adequate for medium-range combat, however, a rather slow rate of fire, low accuracy and lower range make it somewhat lacking for ranged engagements.

It cannot equip grip attachments, meaning there is no possibility to lower recoil, besides equipping special recoil-reducing gloves.
